Missouri launches anti-trafficking app ahead of World Cup events
Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway has announced a partnership she hopes will lessen human trafficking during the FIFA World Cup in Kansas City. Large events such as the World Cup are known to have an increased rate of human trafficking, and Missouri is working to get ahead of this trend.
Safe House Project is a nonprofit organization that aims to end human trafficking. The group has developed an app called Simply Report that gives people the ability to report to law enforcement any activity they feel is concerning.
Safe House Project CEO Kristi Wells said the Simply Report app uses artificial intelligence to parse the information people report.
“Everybody has a gut instinct, and there are times where we see something where we just aren’t confident, but we are concerned. And so the beautiful thing about using Simply Report is that they can share the suspicions and the things they’re seeing and they don’t have to know everything to report,” Wells said.
The app has been available for a year and there has already been considerable success in supporting victims of human trafficking.
“Within three months we saw a 371% increase in the number of victims identified and served by our organization and after 10 months we had a 1,200%,” Wells said.
A 2023 report from the Missouri Statewide Council on Sex Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation of Children, citing an analysis of 2021 data from the National Human Trafficking Hotline, said “As recent as 2020, Missouri had the fourth highest incidence rate of human trafficking at 4.32 per 100,000 people.”
Missouri was the fifth state to partner with Safe House Project. The state’s Director of Anti-Trafficking Operations, Diana Haines, said this issue is important to the Attorney General.
“Catherine Hanaway is committed to protecting victims and preventing exploitation,” Haines said. “The attorney general will always work to get every tool available into the hands of law enforcement to catch traffickers and hold them accountable.”
There is no intention to get rid of Simply Safe after the World Cup.
“We will continue to use and promote Simply Report following the games,” Haines said, “continuing to put the victims first.”

Kehoe signs eight bills into Missouri law, including downtown development legislation
St. Louis could see major downtown renovation in the coming years helped by legislation signed into Missouri law by Gov. Mike Kehoe on Monday.
Kehoe signed a large economic development bill that includes incentivizing the conversion of vacant or underused properties into new housing.
For St. Louis, that could mean changes to the AT&T tower and Railway Exchange building.
Through the legislation, cities could apply for an area to become a Missouri innovation zone and be able to use incentives distributed by the state Department of Economic Development.
Cities must include proposed district boundaries, identify vacant and underutilized properties as well as provide projections of anticipated housing and employment growth in their application. Cities may only establish one of those districts.
Additionally, the legislation allows for up to $50 million annually in tax credits toward the conversion of buildings into residential spaces.
Sen. Steve Roberts, D-St. Louis, said the legislation will ultimately lead to more people living in downtown St. Louis.
“The passage of House Bill 3231 was critical in our efforts to continue revitalizing Missouri’s main streets, central business districts, and downtowns,” Kehoe said in a statement.
The governor signed seven other bills into law Monday, including a wide-reaching health care bill that contains several policies related to reproductive health.
The nearly 200-page bill allows for Missourians on private insurance to obtain 12 months’ worth of birth control pills at once.
It also expands Medicaid coverage to doula services. It would apply to more care before, during and after a pregnancy. The state health department must also create and operate a registry of available doula services.
Additionally, the bill requires insurance companies to cover blood pressure monitors for pregnant and postpartum mothers.
The bill also requires Missouri to track and report cases of Lyme disease and alpha-gal syndrome. Alpha-gal is a tick-borne disease that creates an allergy to mammalian products like meat.
Any identifiable information on the blood test could only be shared between patient and physician.
The legislation also:
- Allows patients to begin their care through telemedicine, as opposed to a physical examination whenever possible.
- Permits the sale of ivermectin, a drug that’s grown in popularity since the COVID-19 pandemic, over the counter. It also expands the types of vaccines pharmacists can administer.
- Prevents insurance companies from capping payment for anesthesia by imposing time limits.
- Permits schools and daycares to provide epinephrine either via injection or orally to treat allergic reactions.
Additionally, Kehoe signed a bill that provides rights to “a child born alive during or after an abortion or attempted abortion.”
The legislation is called the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Anyone who would kill or attempt to kill a fetus born alive after an abortion attempt could be prosecuted for first-degree murder under the bill.
Those against the bill say the focus on abortion causes consequences regarding maternal care in Missouri.
Fetal viability, or the point when a fetus would be able to survive outside the womb, is generally around 24 weeks of pregnancy.
According to KFF health research, abortions at or after 21 weeks of pregnancy are uncommon, representing 1% of all abortions in the country.
Kehoe said in a statement that he was proud to sign bills that will improve health care services across the state.
“I would like to thank the members of the House and Senate for their work to protect our most vulnerable, hold insurance companies accountable, and change the landscape of healthcare access and outcomes in communities across the state,” Kehoe said.
